 The Northeast Minneapolis Farmers Market is holding a brand new fundraising event, The Foodie Four Mile: Race to the Market, to celebrate the market’s opening day, Saturday, June 1. The Foodie Four Mile starts at 8 a.m. at B. F. Nelson Park, winds along the Mississippi River through the St. Anthony West, Nicollet Island, and St. Anthony Main districts. After crossing the Stone Arch Bridge, the second half of the run will go through the wooded west side riverfront parks and Boom Island Park. Costumes, dogs and strollers are welcome. Enjoy post-race treats, receive unique chef aprons instead of the usual shirts, with pockets stuffed with market bucks, usable like cash at the market during the 2013 season. Runners are encouraged to make it a "Foodie Four and a Quarter" by jogging to the Market (located at St. Boniface Church, 7th St. NE and University Ave.) to spend their bucks at the market after enjoying refreshments at the finish line. For more information and to register, visit www.northeastmarket.org.
